Invite the power of flowers into your home

Floral is all over outside. So why not pull a bit of it inside? From wallpaper to pretty accents, nothing brightens the home like flower power.

Banish the thought of your grandmother’s large-rose patterned wallpaper (along with the scent of floral perfume). HGTV suggests some lovely wallcoverings that touch on simple plants like calla lilies.

A few others that caught our eye:

Vine wallpaper

We love the pale, Oriental look of this paper, reminiscent of the papers HGTV notes are popular this year. Think subtle but elegant. Brewster Home Fashion Artistic Illusion Large Floral Vine Wallpaper $84.39 (after 3% Cash Back), walmart.com
